Hi Iwata-San,
Some v4 comments.

It's not clear to me what you were trying to convey by saying "unless
slot has been used" in the comment. Maybe you meant "unless slot is
not in use", but is that useful even to say? Anyway, the comment as-is
seems incorrect.

Sorry for wavering on this, but now that I see the resulting v4 code,
I feel we don't really need any of those 'continues', and more if
conditions can be combined. It becomes simpler. See if you agree.
SUGGESTION:
for (int slotno ...)
{
if (slot->in_use && (slot->worker.bgw_flags & BGWORKER_EXIT_AT_DATABASE_DROP))
{
PGPROC *proc = BackendPidGetProc(slot->pid);
if (proc && proc->databaseId == databaseId)
{
slot->terminate = true;
signal_postmaster = true;
}
}
}

+ /*
+ * if set the bgw_flags, cancel background workers.
+ */
+ CancelBackgroundWorkers(databaseId);

I was wondering about this function name "CancelXXX" -- do you
"cancel" a worker, or do you "terminate" it?
Isn't it better to name this new function more like the
existing/similar TerminateBackgroundWorker() function?
E.g. consider the following:
/*
* Terminate all background workers for this database, if
* they had requested it (BGWORKER_EXIT_AT_DATABASE_DROP).
*/
TerminateBackgroundWorkersForDB(databaseId);
